Barry Town defeated Nelson Cavaliers 2-0 in a cracking match between two competitive sides....writes Paul Ricky Richards...With the winds creating a tough playing environment, both sides traded early exchanges and chances to score were limited. Both keepers then made superb saves just before half time and the game remained goalless at the break. In the second half, the hosts took control of the game and took the lead after Francis created an opening for Powell to calmly finish. Powell then went close with a stunning long-range free kick. Barry went 2nil up when Francis was brought down in the box and Damon Searle calmly slotted home. Nelson came charging back and created a great opportunity out left and a rasping shot was superbly saved by keeper, Vorster and the hosts secured the 3 points.
Penybont secured a fine 1-0 victory over Continental...writes Chris Davies...The hosts just edged a great competitive game at Pencoed College with the winning goal coming early in the 2nd half from Davies.
Champions, Llanelli Town, beat a stubborn Newport 0-5 at Llanwern School....writes Nigel Delaney...In a competitive game of football, the 'high-flying' hosts competed well for large parts of the game and denied Llanelli any clear-cut chances in very windy conditions. The evergreen Legg finally broke the home side’s resistance with a sumptuous free kick from 30 yards. Legg then turned provider to Williams shortly before half time, with ‘Willie’ turning superbly and lofting the keeper from 6 yards. Newport, who had kept a disciplined shape were forced into a number of changes due to injury which disrupted their game-plan and allowed Llanelli to take full advantage as Legg dictated play. Delaney marshalled the stubborn visitors back-line, which Newport found difficult to penetrate, and the busy midfield of offered goal threats from several positions. Walsh slotted home after a strong run to the by-line by Davey, Rogers raced on to a loose ball to get on the scoresheet and Lord completed the scoring from a defence splitting pass from Walsh.
